Besides its good looks, the new Legacy Black Forged plays great. It retains the great soft forged feel that the original model did thanks to its use of premium S20C steel and the VAR medallion on the back helps ease vibrations with miss hits but it does not kill the feel of the iron. You can still feel the ball compress on the face.
The Legacy frames the ball well and you focus on striking in in that frame. Well placed strikes are rewarded with a higher ball flight but good direction and reasonable distance even though the 5 iron is 26* which is not typical average golfer type strong lofts. Miss hits are not punished severely though there is some distance loss. The undercut and the weighting towards the toe and heel do a good job of increasing MOI and helping keep the ball on track.
